Last year, we created our first “Thankful Tree” and the girls just loved it! We gathered branches and pine cones from our backyard to start. Next, we cut out leaves from colored construction paper using a leaf template. There are many free patterns you can find with a quick google or pinterest search. We chose to use this one for a variety of leaf shapes. Every night at dinner, each of us would add our thankful leaf to the tree. It became our table centerpiece and looked so pretty by the end of the month! It would also be a fun way to share baby advice at a fall baby shower. Yesterday, we gathered our branches and are ready to start again. Join me in counting your many blessings and please know how thankful I am for YOU! Happy November!
